IE9

harley89 · September 28, 2010, 10:08:38 AM

Wondering is anybody using IE9. The reviews from users Ive read say it is faster and better the Chrome. And how does it work with autos.

I just downloaded IE9. Seems to be faster.

IE8 is so buggy. SLow, freezes. Guess I will try IE9 Microsoft finally got it right with WIN 7 so maybe they got it right with IE9

Was gonna try 9 but since it says it's still Beta, I will wait a while..

IE9 is quick. I wish they would stop moving the icons every time they release a new browser.

I can use my favorites bar to save things but when i got to click on favorites and open something ...nothings there. this has been going on for awhile now. I have IE8 too. I am going to google IE9 and see if it helps.
Modified because I forgot to ask .... do I have to delete IE8 first or do I just download IE9 over the top of it ??

Just download IE9. When you download IE9, IE8 pretty much updates itself.

Hate to rain on this but I downloaded IE9 and could not get computer to work. Had to do startup repair that got it working them one system restore to get ti back where it was. Thats what i get for breaking my rule on NEVER EVER NEVER download anything Microsoft Beta

Windows 7 is the latest OS from Microsoft. XP users will need to upgrade to Windows 7 when Microsoft stops making security patches for XP. Microsoft ended technical support for XP in 2009 but will issue security patches until 2014 at which time you will need to upgrade your OS.

I will say Microsoft FINALLY built a solid OS with Windows 7. Beats all the rest(and that wasnt hard)

Thank you Homer. I also noticed that IE9 can only be used on windows vista. Is that true or did I read that wrong??

It works with Vista or Windows 7. It does not work with XP

Squid · October 02, 2010, 02:50:44 PM

I love my XP. And I have IE7. I hope I don't have to upgrade to IE9, which means I'll have to uprade to Win7. UGH. I hate this.

IE9
